As to KOBZA itself,
It might be worth educating RoShCo about what it is, and what it does;

Myron Postolan, a Uke from GB, is a competent bandurist, that could
probably be a good substitute for the real thing, but I think he actually
emigrated from GB to UKraine, so he could really fully live out the
alphabetic issue.

Good luck finding one in the UK. There are a dozen or so players in
Ukraine, but none in UK.
Are you sure it wasn't a UK play being presented? Ukes are occasionally
taken for Brits.

Dear Collective wisdom,
I just read in today's (Saturday) Daily Mail. The Royal Shakespeare
Company are presenting a Ukrainian play in September and are in need
of
a Kobza, (described as a folk-instrument)...and hopefully someone who
can play it.
I guess here is as good a place as any to start looking. If anyone
does own one and the ability to play, it shouldn't be too difficult to
offer your services to the RSC.
Best Wishes
Ron (UK)
